Floral Beauty

Some more Floral Beauty blocks completed.

And some of the best kind of mail. I needed some Prairie Rose yardage to go with my layer cake for a secret project. I was very happy to find it for only $17/m at The Stitchers Cupboard......and the service was fast too.

Looking forward to the start of school holidays on Saturday.......I wonder how much sewing they'll let me do.

Hope you find a moment (or two) to stitch this week.

FNWF

I had a great night of sewing. Finished my April blocks for the nine patch swap. I was trying not to choose red and cream again........but i'm not so sure of the colour combination this month.

I also had my first chat room with my online group......now there's an experience!

And prepped another batch of Floral Beauty blocks.

I swore I wouldn't watch Maid in Manhattan AGAIN, but I did, and I enjoyed it.

Hope you have a great weekend.

FIS sent

For the Friends in Stitching swap I sent to Bec. I knew she needed a big bag for classes so I used the Red Home bag pattern but with appliqué instead of stitchery. It was challenging for a red girl to work with blue.

I'm taking Mr 11 into town to do some busking this morning, so I'll be back later with last nights sewing.

Natalie Bird Swap

Tonight was opening night for the Friends in Stitching Natalie Bird swap. I knew Teresa was making for me, and I was not disappointed. Teresa has made me a gorgeous big block keeper and a sweet little mug rug........a first for me on both counts. And in my favourite French General too. Thank you so much Teresa, I love them.

Back to my nine patches. Hope you're having a great Friday night.

Friday Night With Friends

I have signed up for FNWF tomorrow. I'm planning to make my nine patches for April, and a little more Floral Beauty.

There will also be some excitement when I open this package from Teresa as part of a Natalie Bird swap.

So pop over to Cheryll to sign up for a night of stitching with friends.
